Your flat, not the median
The free Flatworth check estimates the rent for one flat from approvals in its own block and within 500 metres, with a range and a gross yield against its own sale estimate. Tampines resale prices sit alongside.
What the rules allow
Only Singapore Citizen owners may rent out a whole HDB flat, and only after the five-year MOP; Plus and Prime flats never. Each tenancy is at least six months, and HDB's approval, S$18 per application, comes first. Where any tenant is a non-Malaysian non-citizen, the flat must fit the Non-Citizen Quota of 8% of the neighbourhood and 11% of the block. A 4-room or bigger flat takes up to 8 tenants, returning to 6 for rental periods past 31 December 2028. Owners of 3-room or bigger flats, Citizens or PRs, may instead rent out bedrooms while living there. The full rules, from HDB's own pages: renting out your HDB flat.
